Trevor Daley, who is having a surprisingly solid season, is closing in on some Stars' franchise records.

He is two goals behind Darryl Sydors' team record of 69 and is five assists behind Stephane Robidas' 163 for eighth place on the franchise list. Daley has received more power-play ice time in 2014-15 than in seasons' past and that in part is why he has registered 32 points this campaign.

Trevor Daley scored a goal and an assist in Saturday's 7-6 loss to Detroit.

Daley did all of his damage in the second period of the game. He scored his 16th of the season to tie the game at two and his assist on Cody Eakin's goal gave the Stars a 3-2 lead. The 31-year-old is having a great offensive season for Dallas. Daley has 16 goals and 31 points in 56 games this season. If he continues on this pace, he will surpass the 20-goal mark.

Trevor Daley had a goal and two assists in a 6-3 win versus Ottawa on Thursday.

He was credited with the first shorthanded goal of his NHL career when he scored into an empty net. Daley also picked up one of his assists on the power play for a solid night of special teams play. He has 12 goals and 24 points in 45 contests.

Daley missed three straight games due to the ailment. He's projected to skate on the second pairing with Jason Demers. Look for Jamie Oleksiak to spend the game in the press box as a result of Daley's return.

Trevor Daley scored his seventh and eventual game-winning goal in the Stars' 2-1 victory in Calgary on Friday night.

Jamie Benn found a streaking Daley down the right side not eight minutes after Benn himself made it 1-0 in the second period, and roofed it short-side before Jonas Hiller could get over. Daley now has seven goals and 16 points, good for fifth on the team and leads blue liners.

Trevor Daley has struggled since being moved from the right side of the defense to the left side.

Daley is a left-handed shot and was forced to switch sides because of the additions of John Klingberg and Jason Demers. "I feel a lot better, and I think I’m going in the right direction, so I don’t want to mess it up," Daley said. "It’s little things, it’s getting the puck into the right area of the ice. I want to be a puck moving guy, so you have move the puck, and I want to find a way to do that."

He logged 28:32 of ice time and posted one shot in a 3-1 loss to the Los Angeles Kings. Daley has spent his entire career with the Dallas Stars. "When you have a chance to reminisce, it is pretty cool," he said. "Obviously, I feel pretty honored and fortunate to be with this organization for this long." Daley is having a strong season offensively with four goals and nine points in 12 games.

Dallas blueliner Trevor Daley continued his quietly excellent season Tuesday as he registered a power play goal and an assist in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.

After having been installed on the team's top power play unit, Daley has been nothing if not spectacular and has recorded eight points in nine games including a whopping four power play goals. Jamie Oleksiak and Tyler Seguin also scored for Dallas in the losing effort.

Tyler Seguin has started to work out while rehabbing an MCL tear to his knee.

He said he is feeling much better and he's hoping to be out closer to the four week range of his three-to-six week timetable. "The doctor says that I'm beyond ahead of schedule," Seguin said. "So, that's good. I haven't skated yet. But hopefully, that will come in the next few days."

Jason Spezza scored two goals in Dallas’ 6-2 loss to Minnesota on Sunday.

Spezza’s first goal actually opened the scoring at the 14:33 mark of the second period. The Stars had a monumental collapse in the third period, as they allowed six goals in the frame. Spezza now has 13 points in his last nine games. The 31-year-old has 14 goals and 50 points in 60 games with Dallas in 2014-15.

Cody Eakin scored two goals and an assist in Friday's 5-4 shootout loss to Colorado.

Eakin opened the scoring at the 2:45 mark of the second period and he extended the Stars' lead to 3-1 early in the third. The 23-year-old also had three shots and a plus-1 rating in 17:15 of ice time. Eakin now has 14 goals and 28 points in 59 games this season. Jason Spezza and Antoine Roussel also scored for the Stars.

With Antoine Roussel suspended, Vernon Fiddler will center the Stars' third line.

Cody Eakin and Ryan Garbutt will be Fiddler's linemates on Friday. "I'm just rewarding [Fiddler] for how well he’s played," Stars coach Lindy Ruff said. "Instead of having him on the fourth line, I've bumped him up. He's played really well and I'm giving him an opportunity for some added responsibility, some added ice time, which I think he deserves." Fiddler has seven goals and 19 points in 52 contests in 2014-15.

Shawn Horcoff scored a goal and an assist in Saturday's 7-6 loss to Detroit.

Coming into this game, Horcoff hadn't registered a point in each of his last seven games. The 36-year-old is relied upon as more of a leader than a point-producer. He has eight goals and 21 points in 55 games this season. The Stars will need everyone to step offensively in the absence of Tyler Seguin (knee).

Shawn Horcoff knows he could be traded, but he's hoping to stay in Dallas.

"My best situation is we win some games and you don't trade anybody," said the 36-year-old center, who can become an unrestricted free agent in the summer. "That's what I would prefer." Erik Cole is another possible trade candidate who would like to remain with the Stars.

Curtis McKenzie and David Schlemko are expected to sit out against the Florida Panthers on Friday night.

While the 22 year old McKenzie has just a goal and 19 PIMs in 14 games with Dallas, his time with AHL Texas has been quite productive. In parts of three seasons since the 2012-13 season, he's put up 33 goals and 83 points in just 105 games. Keep an eye on him moving forward if you're in a deep or dynasty league. Schlemko meanwhile has no fantasy value to speak of.

Valeri Nichushkin (hip) could be back in the lineup in about four-to-six weeks.

He received that timetable after a visit with his doctor in New York last Friday. "He's skating before and after practice, but it will be a little bit longer for him," GM Jim Nill said. "We'll take it slower and just make sure he's ready for each step." Nichushkin hasn't played since Nov. 6 and he underwent hip surgery on Nov. 18.

It looks like Ales Hemsky will indeed play Sunday night against the Minnesota Wild, after being ruled a game-time decision.

Hemsky is having trouble dealing with the pain in his hip, but will soldier on anyway. He has three assists and four points in his last five games, and 16 assists and 25 points overall in 53 games this season.

Coach Lindy Ruff wasn't happy with an elbowing penalty Garbutt took in the second period, so the Dallas winger didn't get much playing time afterward. He concluded the match with just 7:54 of ice time. Garbutt has had some disciplinary issues this season and he's been suspended twice.

Colton Sceviour will skate to the right of Travis Moen and Shawn Horcoff to form the Stars' fourth line on Friday night against the Panthers.

Sceviour hasn't played in a week, and there isn't much fantasy value between these three forwards. With just 43 points and little else to show for their efforts, it cannot be suggested you pick up Sceviour, Moen or Horcoff.

This was Eaves' first game back after missing seven games with a concussion. The 30-year-old tied the game at one with a power play goal in the second period but the Ducks eventually pulled away. Trevor Daley and John Klingberg picked up the assists on Eaves' goal. He now has seven goals and 14 points in 29 games this season.

He has been sidelined since he collapsed on the bench in March and was revived by the Stars' medical staff. Peverley had heart surgery shortly afterward. His progress was expected to be slow, but he shouldn't be expected to play this season. Peverley's career might also be in jeopardy.

With Tyler Seguin, Patrick Eaves and Ales Hemsky all going down to injury Friday night, Ritchie is sure to get significant playing time. Ritchie has registered four points in 10 games with Dallas this season and has 18 points in 24 AHL contests. He has some potential, so watch him.

Alex Goligoski tapped home a goal and added an assist during Dallas' 5-3 loss to the Lightning on Thursday night.

Goligoski had gone pointless for five games, but the pair of points brings him to 25 in 51 games so far this season. The Stars have a sparkling opportunity to get back on track Saturday night against the league-worst Buffalo Sabres.

Trevor Daley, who is having a surprisingly solid season, is closing in on some Stars' franchise records.

He is two goals behind Darryl Sydors' team record of 69 and is five assists behind Stephane Robidas' 163 for eighth place on the franchise list. Daley has received more power-play ice time in 2014-15 than in seasons' past and that in part is why he has registered 32 points this campaign. He should no longer be available on the wire, but if he is, grab him.

Jason Demers recorded a goal for the Stars in their 4-3 win over the Blues on Saturday night.

Demers has four of his seven points in 13 games with the Stars, so he has done just what general manager Jim Nill hoped for when he traded for him. The goal was his first of the season, so he’s not much of a fantasy option at this point. Trevor Daley, Ryan Garbutt and Travis Moen also scored for Dallas.

John Klingberg picked up two assists in Saturday's 3-2 loss to Buffalo.

Klingberg registered the primary assists on both of Dallas' goals (Tyler Seguin and Cody Eakin). The Stars found themselves down 3-0 in the second period and were unable to come back in the game. The 22-year-old has nine points in his last five games, and he has an overall stat line of 10 goals and 27 points in 38 games.

He skated in five games with Texas, where he picked up one assist and five shots on goal. It's unclear if he'll play Tuesday for the first time since Oct. 18 when he suffered an arm laceration, but it's possible.

Stars head coach Lindy Ruff said that his goaltending has been the cause of some frustration this season.

"There's nights that he has to steal games, there's nights where he has to out-perform the other guy," Ruff said. "Our goaltending has been tough on our team, and I think that's where the frustration is." By his own admission, Lehtonen has said that he needs to play better. His numbers are way down from where they usually are. The 31-year-old has a respectable 25-13-10 record but his goals-against-average sits at 2.97 and his save percentage is only at .905.

Enroth is now 0-4-0 since being acquired from Buffalo last month. The 26-year-old hasn't played as bad as his numbers would indicate. His record falls to 13-25-2 with a 3.30 goals-against-average and a .900 save percentage. Only Coyotes' goaltender Mike Smith has lost more games this season.
